What is the legal definition of being in charge?
There is no legal definition for the term "in charge" so each case will depend on its exact circumstances and facts. Generally, a Defendant is "in charge" if he was the owner/in possession of the vehicle or had recently driven it. He is not in charge if it is being driven by another person or is "a great distance" from the vehicle.
Matters are more complicated where a person is sitting in the vehicle or "otherwise involved with it". In charge can include attempting to gain entry to the vehicle and failing, having keys to the vehicle, having intention to take control of the vehicle or even "being near the vehicle".
What if I fell asleep in the car or I was sitting in the back?
It depends on the circumstances leading up to it. If somebody else had driven the vehicle, and has merely got out and left you in it, and you were not aware of this, you are not in charge. If, however, you had, by your own means got into the car you would have been in charge and remain in charge.
Can I be prosecuted if I am sitting in the passenger seat?
Yes. If the Police believe that you were driving at some point, but when they stopped the vehicle, you were no longer driving, it is still possible to prosecute or if the Police are able to show that there was a likelihood of you driving the vehicle. You do not have to be sitting in the driver's seat to be "in charge".

: Z kosmetycznego punktu widzenia zamiast "kierować (pojazdem)" można dać "prowadzić (pojazd)". || Tak, "kierować" jest lepsze - policja zawsze mówi o "kierującym/kierującej pojazdem" - kosmetyka zbędna i nieładna.

Zgoda, choć użyłem "kierować" ze względu na słownictow policyjno-prawnicze: http://www.lodz.policja.gov.pl/content/view/3272/280/ || to chyba zaszłość językowa "kierowca kieruje" :)
